On this week’s episode of Talking Radical Radio, Sonia Singh of the Toronto Workers Action Centre and Anthony Tambureno of the Peel Regional Labour Council talk about the province-wide campaign by community groups, workers centres, unions, faith organizations, and more that has worked for the last year to get the Ontario government to boost the minimum wage to a living wage of $14/hr.
